  1. Now let's review the bets....

    Chelsea - No bets

    Valencia - No bets

    Roma - No bets

    PSV Eindhoven - No bets

    Bayern Munchen - No bets

    AC Milan - No bets

    man utd - No bets (of course not ;) )

    Liverpool - well, well, well....what do you know.....two bright minds have their money on liverpool...... :)

    Oh dear this has all the markings of a suicidal curse. I hope it isn't for the sake of football winning over money (in some respects) but, much as I hate them (Chelski)......... to miss out Edge's pick could be your downfall.

    As far as AC Milan are concerned.......I can't honestly see them winning it. They've got one world class player but their team ethic is suspect. Had Nakamura and McGeady played a bit better and had we got our stonewall penalty, coupled with the consequential sending off of Maldini.....then we would have saw them off the premises.

    The not so mighty but more the mighty relieved AC Milan methinks.

  2. Just a week or two ago my poor old Uncle Bill,

    Went and kicked the bucket and he left me in his will.

    The other day I popped around to see poor Auntie Jane,

    She said "Your Uncle Bill has left to you a watch and chain*."

    I put it on right across my vest,

    Thought I looked a dandy as it dangled on my chest.

    Just to flash it off I started walking 'round about,

    A lot of nippers followed me and all began to shout:

    "Any old iron any old iron any any old, old iron?

    You look neat - talk about a treat,

    You look dapper from your napper to your feet.

    Dressed in style, brand new tile,

    And your father's old green tie on,

    But I wouldn't give you tuppence for your old watch chain,

    Old iron, old iron?"

  3. As your deity, I would reproach you at the very least. The Christian God was well-known for doing just that in the Old Testament. So, he either never existed and the Bible is interpreted fiction, he's forsaken you or Nietzsche killed him Spakeing Thus and the like.

    Pick one.

    What distinguishes us [scientists] from the pious and the believers is not the quality but the quantity of belief and piety; we are contented with less. But if the former should challenge us: then be contented and appear to be contented! - then we might easily reply: 'We are, indeed, not among the least contented. You, however, if your belief makes you blessed then appear to be blessed! Your faces have always been more injurious to your belief than our objections have! If these glad tidings of your Bible were written on your faces, you would not need to insist so obstinately on the authority of that book... As things are, however, all your apologies for Christianity have their roots in your lack of Christianity; with your defence plea you inscribe your own bill of indictment.

    from Nietzsche's Assorted Opinions and Maxims,s. 98, R.J. Hollingdale transl.

    He was a smooth talkin twaddle that Nietzsche!
